（4）公元741年前后（唐朝时期），古新罗国（今韩国）王子金乔觉卓锡九华，建化城寺。金乔觉圆寂后，肉身不坏，后人建肉身塔供奉，九华山化城寺被辟为地藏菩萨道场，名声渐播。后经李白改九子山为九华山，更增添了九华山的名气。

Kim Gyo-gak, a prince of the ancient Silla country (Korea), came to Jiuzishan for his Buddhist career in about A.D. 741 (the Tang Dynasty), and then, the Huacheng temple was built up. His body was not rotten after he passed away. The descendants built a flesh body temple to worship him as the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. The Huacheng temple has become an ashram of Ksitigarbha Buddhisattva worldwide since then. Li Bai, a famous poet of the Tang Dynasty, came here and created the name of Jiuhuashan instead of Jiuzishan, which made the Jiuhuashan more popular.
